As the title says, for example: call c:\ Instructions（August）.doc — since （） can't be handled this way, what should I do?

call c:\ Instructions^（August^）.doc
But can a .doc file be invoked with call? Shouldn't it only be opened with the start command?

call in a batch file is only used to call external batch programs, internal commands, internal subroutines, etc......... I'll add a little chatter too, nothing to do.........

When call and start invoke a non-executable file, they will launch the associated program to open the file.
The usual way is to wrap the filename in double quotes: call "c:\ Instructions（August）.doc"

In systems above 2000, call can replace start! But under 98, I don't know whether it works! Haven't tried it!
